On Earth record high CO2

Even during the Pliocene epoch the carbon dioxide in the planet’s atmosphere were smaller. Now each cubic meter of air there are 415 ml of carbon dioxide.

The amount of CO2 on Earth exceeded the historical maximum since the advent of agriculture. It is reported by CNN.

According to the Observatory, the National Agency oceanic and atmospheric administration (NOAA), located at the top of the volcano Mauna Loa on the island of Hawaii, on Saturday, may 11th, was recorded the highest levels of carbon dioxide on the planet.

In the earth’s atmosphere recorded 415 parts СО2на million (ppm). This means that in each cubic meter of air there are 415 ml of carbon dioxide.

Scientists report that this is the highest indicator not only among the documented history, and since the advent of agriculture 10 thousand years ago. About 3 million years ago during the Pliocene epoch the carbon dioxide concentration ranged from 310 to 400 ppm.

For the first time in modern history, the CO2 level reached 400 ppm in 2013.

Earlier it was reported that CO2 emissions on the planet reached a historical record. Also, the Correspondent wrote, created “artificial leaves” that absorb carbon dioxide.
